CloFu: PETA wants George Clooney's sweat-flavored tofu

latimesblogs.latimes.com — Things got sticky for George Clooney when PETA received a towel apparently used by the actor at a Washington DC gym. The president of the animal right's organization wrote Clooney a letter requesting his approval to turn sweat from the towel into flavoring for tofu.

    C'est la vie.
  • mpn401, on 03/14/2009, -2/+77PETA would let a thousand people die just to save some diseased deer in the meadow.
  • 31073, on 03/14/2009, -1/+57milking a cow = bad

    extracting sweat from celebs = ok.
  • lindsayb, on 03/12/2009, -1/+37siiiiiiiiiiiiiick!!!!!!!!

    but, coming from the people who protested a dog show in klan hoods, i guess this particular antic is at least kind of funny.
  • khaosx2030, on 03/14/2009, -0/+36Must be delicious sweat.

    Wait, who the ***** tasted it in the first place?
  • AlienMushroom, on 03/14/2009, -0/+30Eating animal is just wrong, but human? Yummy!
  • Natitude, on 03/13/2009, -6/+31Any fan willing to eat someone's sweat tofu is probably a sociopath
  • wannaBdug, on 03/13/2009, -1/+25This is just so wrong in so many ways
  • trogdor282, on 03/14/2009, -4/+28They're close, tofu already tastes like George Clooney's ass.
  • Psybient, on 03/14/2009, -2/+24It's common knowledge that PETA doesn't really save animals. They kill more animals every year than any other organization.
    Besides, what do you expect from a woman who sees NO contradiction devoting her life to stopping animal testing, despite the fact that she is only alive because of daily injections of insulin (which of course was developed by...you guessed it...animal testing).

    She's a ***** loon.
  • eatinshramps, on 03/14/2009, -0/+20PETA can eat some of my tasty BallFu and enjoy the taste of a spicy jockstrap.
  • zuiquan, on 03/14/2009, -0/+17***** you Onion! Stop giving "real" news sources anonymous tips that they then turn into completely ridiculous stories.

    What? This is not *****? OK, ***** you PETA!
  • inactive, on 03/14/2009, -1/+16I don't think sociopath is the word you're looking for. Obsessive, ***** insane, creepy stalker to the max, yes, but sociopath means something completely different.
  • jonglebeats, on 03/14/2009, -0/+14You should wipe your ass first.
  • digitizit, on 03/14/2009, -1/+14As if we needed any more proof the people at PETA were nutjobs.
  • pinkcherry, on 03/14/2009, -1/+12I think this ***** save the animals PETA front is a cover for their true intentions. Cannibalism!
  • jcharak58, on 03/14/2009, -0/+11no one can resist my schwetty (tofu) balls
  • Innuendo24, on 03/14/2009, -0/+10http://lmgtfy.com/?q=false+dichotomy
  • twiztidsinz, on 03/14/2009, -0/+10I'm gonna go with option C: Human Lives.
  • macmcraeart, on 03/14/2009, -1/+11richard simmons is that you?
  • Urbanninja622, on 03/14/2009, -2/+11I've never eaten tofu but if it tastes so bad you have to use actor sweat to flavor it I don't think I'm ever going to try it
  • Frozo, on 03/14/2009, -0/+9Anything to get attention, basically.
  • conebone69, on 03/14/2009, -1/+10I'd like to piss on a towel and wipe my ass with it and send it to the president of PETA.
  • AlienMushroom, on 03/14/2009, -0/+8Ingrid Newkirk must be licking it all day long.
  • Cattywampus, on 03/14/2009, -0/+8Well, Clooney apparently surrendered the sweat freely on the towel. No one had to tweak his nipples to get it. (Now that would have been created all kinds of fantasies for Clooney fans...)

    I like Clooney's response to the PETA offer: "As a mammal, I'm offended."
  • mushrooms538, on 03/14/2009, -1/+9Anybody who actually supports PETA is probably a sociopath.
  • Audiophile44, on 03/14/2009, -0/+8It's sad because all the money that PETA puts into retarded advertising and silly campaigns COULD be going to animal shelters or the like.
  • pnmoore, on 03/14/2009, -0/+8I hope this is not true, but if it is then PETA is more bat ***** crazy than I thought they were. How can anybody really take them seriously?
  • ikeeel4money, on 03/14/2009, -1/+9Apparently clooney's sweat doesn't evaporate.
  • DangerCollie, on 03/14/2009, -0/+7I think this is just more proof PETA has gone off the reservation. I'm just as critical of right when the religious wingnuts are at the controls. It's not any less disturbing when it's a left wing organization going cuckoo for Coca Puffs. I don't think PETA understands that when they let the extreme elements of their organization drive the dialog that it undermines their overall message. Ethical treatment of animals is a good thing. Sweat flavored tofu...not good.
  • JGib, on 03/14/2009, -2/+9ಠ_ಠ
  • krispykreams, on 03/14/2009, -0/+6WTF?
  • seltaeb4, on 03/14/2009, -0/+6Soylent Cloon is made of people!
  • kingbinji, on 03/14/2009, -0/+6its official....PETA is crazy
  • handheldchimp, on 03/14/2009, -2/+8Delete your system32 folder, and it allows you to use hidden characters.
  • Dankenbring, on 03/14/2009, -0/+5why?
  • blix797, on 03/15/2009, -0/+4you're absolutely right, but I just wanted to point out that i'ts their VICE president who takes insulin, not Ingrid herself.
  • FearlessFreep, on 03/14/2009, -0/+4I think they've gone beyond caring about animal rights and are now just being weird for the sake of getting attention for themselves
  • inactive, on 03/14/2009, -0/+4That describes most PETA members, so yes, I agree.
  • marigoldsold, on 03/14/2009, -0/+4'If you use a sample of human perspiration, it is "no different than making artificial chicken flavor for instant gravy."'

    Yes, I do believe PETA is sub-consciously endorsing cannibalism. Let us first get a taste of human with tofu; a ritualistic sampling of idolized celebrities.
  • Volatile36, on 03/14/2009, -1/+5Dugg for "spicy jockstrap."
  • inactive, on 03/14/2009, -1/+5Whichever way you cut it, sociopath/psychopath refers to someone who is antisocial and amoral. Obviously, severe psychological issues are at work here if you feel compelled to eat sweat-flavored tofu, but I don't think specifically antisocial or amoral covers it here.
  • GTKarber, on 03/14/2009, -0/+4I love Clooney's response: "As a mammal, I'm offended."

    Perfect.
  • SniperZero, on 03/14/2009, -0/+4In a world where humans have made them self extinct for the sake of animals.
    /s
  • pinkcherry, on 03/14/2009, -1/+5What next asking some female celebrity for her used tampons to make a flavored tofu?
  • pinkcherry, on 03/14/2009, -0/+4Maybe they're keeping it humidified in a plastic baggy somehow....ew mold
  • dhughes, on 03/14/2009, -1/+4Peta = bury
  • lead2thehead, on 03/14/2009, -0/+3The sad part is that he probably thought this comment was deep and insightful.
  • Travelsonic, on 03/14/2009, -0/+3Apparently you on't understand that when PETA is involved, there are no lines to show the difference.
  • stufflebean, on 03/14/2009, -1/+4It's Unicode. U+0CA0 in charmap.
